G'day Ade
Was this for a 8.8cm Raketenpanzerbuchse 54?

[Adrian Stevenson]

Hi René, how did you guess that! Correct. Was that all they made?

Cheers, Ade.

Thinking back, I had heard of the Company before, in fact, they are mentioned here in an article I posted on the forum last year. Just never knew the makers code.

Ade,
was this maker code stamped on the panzerschreck? I had not seen that link before, thanks.

Hi Pete, yes it is stamped under the trigger guard.

Cheers, Ade.

Was that the only thing stamped? have you ever seen a serial number? As mine was dug up, surface rust has obliterated any markings and i'm curious.Here's a pic.
thanks Pete.

Hi Pete, yes there is a serial number too. I cannot show you a pic as yet as a deal in in the offing

Cheers, Ade.
